And breathe me; any - October - 09-04-2025



















The walk through her old home causes a slight chill along her spine but it’s from the excitement that bubbles like a life spring in her heart. The air is cool and crisp with the winter season but it feels warmer today and her fuzzy coat itches deep in her skin. October can feel a blossom of a smile crawling across her dark lips.

The buttermilk mare is nearly a creamy white with the thickness of her coat. She can feel a small longing for spring to shed the extra layer but perhaps it’s only because the winter day feels unseasonably warm. The Gates always drew out the best in her demeanor and she is eager to reestablish her devotion to the land.

It’s quiet on her walk aside from the crunch of her hooves over frozen blades of grass. She tips her dark nose up to scent for other equines. Hopefully there are others? A small, polite whinny is given to alert any who may hear as October cannot contain her excitement to return home.

RE: And breathe me; any - Cascadia - 09-04-2025

Cascadia had been living here for a little while now, watching her young daughter grow up with others who weren't that much older than her had almost made the dangers they had gone through acceptable..... almost. She still hated that the filly's first few days on this earth had been one of danger, the buckskin and white mare having fought of every predator who saw her child as a easy meal.

Wynters barely seemed to remember that time but Cascadia definitely did. It had made the mare want to keep her daughter close to keep her safe. Made it hard to allow her daughter to have a bit of freedom, even now she only allowed her out of the gates if she was with the twins, she knew the brother and sister duo would keep Wynters safe.

She had been grazing when she heard the call, her head coming up, ears on a swivel to locate this unknown horse. Dark eyes spotted the buckskin mare, slight hesitation as she wasn't use to strangers before she stopped forward, offering a gentle whicker in greeting. She didn't know this mare but that didn't really mean much, there would be plenty of Viszla's family she didn't know who she suspected would pop home once in a while.

Hello she said when the pair were only a few feet from each other.

October finds a feeling of giddiness swelling in her breasts as her call is answered. Oh my it has been ages! The buckskin admires the other mare with bright amber eyes as she twitches slightly with warmth and interest. October exudes sheer warmth and gentleness as her eyes fall to the filly by the other’s side. ”Hello!” Her tone was bright and lifted. She smiles to the filly but her eyes quickly returned to the painted mare out of politeness.

”I’m October,” she begins gently as she realizes that this Beqanna has since been resurrected in the previous years and October was from lifetimes past, ”it’s so good to see another face.” A small laugh follows after the statement. She does not want to appear too pushy so she takes a breath and share a few heartbeats with the others. ”It’s wonderful to be back here. I lived here long ago…are there any other’s here?”

She pauses now to at least let the other mare answer. October worries she may appear forward but can not contain her happiness to return to the Gates. There were so many old, painful memories buried in the land when she loved Sariel…but those feel ancient and old. October is renewed and fresh again when the old lands had been resurrected and she intended to spent this second life living as a gift. Gone was the shell of a mare she had been. This land, this version of the Gates would be lived in light and appreciation.

@Cascadia
I’m so sorry I don’t know your discord name or I would have reached out sooner ♥️

RE: And breathe me; any - Cascadia - 09-22-2025

OOC: Just to amend Cascadia is on her own, her daughter is off somewhere else)

The painted mare smiled at the unknown mare who seemed rather excited to meet someone here. Cascadia could understand that, The Gates was reasonable quite when the youngsters were off exploring. She enjoyed the peace most of the time, especially compared to life before she had gotten here.

She nods lightly when the mare offers her name before returning the greeting with her own Cascadia, it's nice to meet you October. This mare seemed friendly and she hadn't really met many other since she had been here. She didn't feel like an outcast or anything but she was still trying to find out who she was. It was an odd concept for her when she'd spent so long simply being a mother, one who was struggling a little with letting her young fly the nest so to speak. She had slowly begun to cut those metaphorical ties, the ones that wanted to keep her daughter close and away from harm forever.

This mare, October, seemed familiar with the lands, but more in a distant traveller returning sort of way, something the mare confirmed a heartbeat later. Chatting to another was offering a good distraction for her, especially whilst her child was off exploring with the twins.

There are a few she says in response to her question the land is still pretty quiet however so possibly not quite as you remember it she continues myself and my daughter have been here a few years now she smiles, remember how young Wynters was when they first arrived, and how Viszla had taken the frightened young mother in with her exhausted foal.

How long has it been since you were last here? She asks, curious of this mares story and how different The Gates may look now.
